Victim named in crash

HASTINGS — A 68-year-old St. Augustine woman died after a crash Tuesday morning involving a car and a semi truck.

Florida Highway Patrol spokesman Lt. Bill Leeper said Bonnie K. Fowler died after the vehicle she was driving, a silver Toyota Corolla, collided with the side of a blue semi driven by James Lashley,56, of Live Oak.

He said the woman, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from her car when it hit the treeline and died at the scene.

The crash happened at 8:05 a.m. at the intersection of County Road 13 and Don Manuel Road.

Fowler was heading west on Don Manuel Road when she failed to stop at a stop sign and impacted the truck, which was headed north on County Road 13, Leeper said.
